I guess my answer is the same as most people in this thread that gambling will ruin lives. is currently in the beginning, gambling would be nice, but after that the pleasure it will soon disappear because of disappointments and losses.
It is on the individual if he knows how to control himself, the real battle in gambling is when you experience cold streak and you still have money to gamble, usually it would result to losing all our money because we do not want to stop down big.
1402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: August 14, 2016, 03:10:56 AM
To be honest - there is no option to play safe! Gambling itself is risky. Everytime when you put 1 satoshi on any game it is risk, so in other words it is 'gambling'

As i know.. there is no smart way to play gambling.. ok ther is one: only when you play for free.. but of course it is just trick to pull you to the gambling machine.
That's what you called promotion, usually a gambling website will also have that as part of their marketing strategy to attract more players to come in. Once a player is already in then that would be the time they will make profit because once a gambler will start the session, he will not stop until he lose all his bankroll.
1403  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: August 13, 2016, 02:55:12 AM
In my experience, buying the dip on currencies that have a decent bought of volume has delivered good results. Of course you never know what is a dip and what is a top.. you need luck. Example, ETC dipped, I bought, and now im making money as it goes higher.

Yes studying the current trend why the price sits in a certain range will really help us to plan our next trading moves. Yes it's not accurate but at least you have an overview on what will supposed to be happen.

And besides it's really interesting to make an own strategy and you will see good result after.
It is true, if you are new in trading, make sure you start with a little amount for your trading since you do not know how the market would react so most of the time you fail on your prediction, but with little amount you can manage your losses and what is important is you can learned.

The moment you have learned already, that is the time to set up a huge capital for trading.
yeah. if you want to become a successful trader then you actually have to try everything yourself with small amounts of money to be able to trade bigger in the future
Even in real business, you need to start small as there is no guarantee that when we start we will automatically succeed. Most of the time in the first try we fail so to minimize the risk we need to put only a little but a decent amount to learned how to trade.
1404  Economy / Speculation / Re: The future of Bitcoin on: August 13, 2016, 02:42:14 AM
But you know even fiat or other currencies can also experience fast transactions and it's present in most of the countries now like here in our country where sending money to an account is just one click away.

Add to this the fact that it is impossible to send your money nowhere and next to impossible to send it to a wrong payee (that would require you to go totally nuts), while with Bitcoin you can shoot yourself in the foot even easier than you could fall off a log...

In this aspect Bitcoin is like a hand grenade with the pull ring removed
I can say that other form of payment could also be fast but with bitcoin the it is not only fast but it is also cheap, imagine how much you can save if you are transacting regularly online, maybe this is the reason why smart people are using bitcoin to transact online rather than their bank accounts.
1405  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: August 13, 2016, 02:40:43 AM
Making a research is good, it is just being initiative. It is nice knowing the history and background information so that you can understand and learn the things. Just go on with the flow of the price, we can still make profit in different ways disregarding the value.

I think the bitcoin price is consolidating at the current $586 range for a few more days, it will rise to $600 next month.
it would be really great if your predictions are correct at the moment, i think that bitcoin is going to be huge in like a few years and make me money

The bitcoin has recovered from the big drop. It is consolidating at the moment. After the consolidation, the price will rise.
Yeah! I also believe the rise will continue and it will reach into the level that it will surpass $600 this month. I hope some miracle will happen so I can sell my bitcoins stuck in my wallet, we just need a little good news that would make the price pump and then boom! I will make money then.
1406  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you actively spend your bitcoins? on: August 13, 2016, 02:25:11 AM
For now i spend bitcoin in trading or any online marketing that accept bitcoin as payment in advertising..
Im not so active to spend but holding bitcoin is the best to do because the price is not enough to sell bitcoin instead.

Yeah this is not the best time to sell as price is not at higher level but it will be much higher in future so its better to hold it for next couple of years.
Spending is good if we are a discipline spender, we only spend for the things that we really need to buy because if not there will be no chance we can save our bitcoins, we need to believe that the coins we are holding will give us a fortune in the future so we need to be patient and hold our coins instead of spending it.
1407  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: August 13, 2016, 01:58:00 AM

Kids couldn't work for money. Its their parents responsibility to feed them and give them money. Kids should be staying on the house playing their little toys.
Yea ,kids should play and just after they reach an age where they understand what is money and how they work in our society than we can teach them about bitcoin and making money online
That's true, because if we are talking about kids it is presumably that it is minors who does not know how to manage their own money yet. Bitcoin is very complicated and the only way you can learn it effectively is by staying in a forum right here for discussion but the risk is there are other people who might say inappropriate words not suitable for kids.
1408  Other / Off-topic / Re: Any safe way to grow my bitcoins ? on: August 13, 2016, 01:50:29 AM
for me the safer way to growing our btcoin is building ethereum mining rig, the rate of ethereum is very interesting to me, also i can earn consistent profit each month with mining.
I did not hear about it before, can you please explain about it a bit more, I think trading, selling goods and activities similar to this, are best way.

I think a lot of people are suggesting that. Building their own ethereum mining rig is really their suggestion to grow their bitcoins. But if you are going to have a lot of source of earning in crypto currency that is going to be better and you are the one that is going to benefit out of it.
And all of what you have said are right.

I dint know it were profitable to get a mining rig directed to eth, i believed only bitcoin were the best way to monetize the rigs, soo its time to search about it and see if it will worth or not the investment.
I think its not a good idea to buy  a mining rig for ETH honestly i still lost faith at this altcoin when dao hack issue is happen..
You can be trust it easily because they are already been done in hacking experience.
The only thing the best to invest and to grow your bitcoins for the safety is to trade bitcoin/usd or usd/bitcoin this is the best to do right now if you have 1 btc set your margin with $5 to $15 you are making a profit with a good margin.. even its a small amount you can make a lots of profit if you are good in setting a margin..
So you are talking about day trading? How I wish I have the skills to make consistent money in day trading, if I could guarantee myself that I can earn even a little percent on a daily basis brought by the movement of the price of bitcoin then I would be willing to invest more than 1 BTC for that.
1409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: August 13, 2016, 01:46:06 AM
For me i just gamble for fun sometimes, i am not addicted gambler, so gambling don't wreck my life, but for addicted gamblers i think many of them don't feel really good with gambling always.
Even if you gamble everyday as long as you know how to control yourself, gambling will never harm you and instead you will get the enjoyment you are looking for on a daily basis. However, for people who lacks self control in gambling and would result to rage when loses are experienced, they should not play in a regular basis.
1410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When gambling makes you cry. on: August 13, 2016, 01:39:47 AM
gambling makes me cry whem balance 0.0955 btc and then 0.125 btc
and now the balnce is 0 i want to cry as hard as possible
then just quit gambling if you dont want to lose a lot of your money, when you are in small profit just stop and transfer money into your wallet

Gambling never lets you stop when you are winning, that is the nature of a human when they see they are winning something they just try to win more and just because of that they lose everything, so the only option is to quit gambling if you dont want to lose your money.

I think the same situation when you lose or win, we always want to keep playing. especially if lost, could continue to try to recover.
so I think if you are a gambler, you should be ready to lose and was able to play with money can afford to lose.
Of course, that's the way it should be, you need to understand that gambling is all about losing and winning and whichever you side sometimes you need to accept the outcome, it is not fair to be happy when you have won but you will not accept when you lose. Therefore we should always consider putting the amount of money that we can afford to lose.
1411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: August 13, 2016, 01:35:09 AM
The safest way to gamble is to withdraw after you won so good amount (don't be greedy) and not try to recover if you lost, just accept it and move on.
That does not make sense when in the next day you will still play in gambling, remember that you cannot win all the time so there is a chance that you will lose in the next session, I think you just have to stick with your plan and learn how to control in gambling.
i agree with his opinion about to withdraw the whole winning amount ,
indeed you will get back to play but at least you will not risking the past winning amount ,
you will just start back to 0 , for example won 10 btc with 1 btc bankroll , withdraw all and deposit the next day for 1 btc only ,
i guess it was what he means .

That is right, that must be how he meant it. But you know what, before that I have no sessions creations and some strategies in placed, it was really hard to withdrew when you are winning because you feel like that you can still win more.. That was the feeling and excitement. But I really learned my lessons the hard way after I lost 2btc overall.
not hard if you really learned on your past bad experience ,
and have a willpower against your bad feeling about to win more ,
once you get it , you  will easily collecting your winning without afraid to lost it back ,
there is no specific method to gamble safely but at least follow the suggestion above and get your money!
Common problem of the gamblers are they have an experience but they did not learned from it, they keep doing their method which give them the same results. To be safe, you also need to adjust your method when that is not working anymore as the is the key to success in gambling.
1412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: August 13, 2016, 01:31:15 AM
it is not a sickness for sure, in my opinion people should be able to do whatever they want with their money they earn so they can freely gamble if they want

That is true people can do whatever they want and whenever they want but to gamble away your money like that you should considered that as sickness. After you try it once you will want to do it again and again although you dont want but that feeling to get more money will slowly come and makes you addict to it
Your so much love of money will really make you an addict in gambling, without you interest of money you will be able to gamble for fun and you will not be greedy, maybe that aspects in gambling should be properly evaluated by every gambler to avoid addiction.
1413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 12, 2016, 07:39:29 AM
It is really hard to advice other people who are not like listening, what you can then is to make them realize the effects and consequences on what they are doing. For me, I will stick to self-control because it is just only on our mindset, we need to change it and think about the good things.
Our advise does not necessarily to be acted upon by a specific gambler, but we have to be proud with ourselves because we made the right contribution for someone who are willing to hear us and put into actions the suggestion that will work for him.
1414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: August 12, 2016, 07:31:32 AM
its really sad that people sometimes literally cannot control themselves even if they actually understand that they are going to lose, they should seek professional help

Because they want it to happen and they let it happen and let it conquer their lives...Usually it is out of desperation or depression in real life that could result to their excessive gambling... Maybe they have a weak disposition in life, that's my opinion to that.
That could be possible because if you are a person with a good job and has so many responsibilities with your family you cannot give more time in gambling as you need to prioritize things over, gambling addicts are sometimes those teenager that does not thing too much for their lives and just ask money from their parents.
1415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing investment on Gambling sites on: August 12, 2016, 07:24:17 AM
Well, I've never invested in a gambling site, but I guess it is quite risky because the site may be a scam in a few months. if you want to invest the money you have in gambling sites, you should choose a site that is very reliable, and find information on the site. I have yet to lose in investing in gambling sites, but I know what it feels like
i have never did that too, though i saw gambling websites run away with people money for example there was a website that had ninja in its name or something like that, it was big and it turned out to a scam
In investing in a gambling sites, we need to use the proper timing because there is no permanent in the crypto world aside from bitcoin itself, scammers are everywhere but you can notice them if you are wise enough and being an investor you need to be clever to consistently make money.
1416  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: August 12, 2016, 07:12:57 AM
Instead of encouraging your kid to work with faucets, an illusion of profit, teach them to code or a useful skill. It's better in the long run and overall will make much more than 200 sat.
Helping a kid code? Dude that's nearly an impossible task. I have no idea how you would even be able to interest a kid with the idea of coding to be honest. Plus most of the work for coding is done by people who are willing to do it for next to nothing because they live in a cheap place or one with no work. Teach them to do anything else that has actual value where they can specialize and not be undercut by competition and forced to work for super cheap.
Kids are not due for the coding job, your kids will just grow up as a nerd person and most likely would become homophobic due to lack of social involvement, I am a parent but I would not encourage my kids do coding at a young age.
1417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 12, 2016, 06:31:13 AM
Bitcoin itself is already an investment. But i prefer to use it for investments. Just to be sure it will steady and minimize the losses when a sudden drop occur. Gambling is not smart thing to make your bitcoins to double coz its very risky. Ofcourse investments also are risky but its more safer than gambling. Gambling can take away your bitcoin in an instant when you are not careful
It is really an investment because you cannot use bitcoin easily in spending it especially when you are spending a big amount of money which the prices will at any given time will fluctuate. I would also rather use it as an investment because we are still in the early phase and we can see more improvement in the future.
1418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: August 12, 2016, 06:27:44 AM
Gambling is so addicting because the player is enjoying the game at the same time they are earning, despite of the high percentage of losing their money.
pleasure presented by gambling game is the only momentary pleasure. there are many ways to get pleasure without having to feel the loss that much. The pleasure we can get from trading because it is better than gambling.

Trading and gambling both is sure can give us some fun but the point playing on trading you really need huge amount to get more profit and it will make you feel joy. But in gambling you can win like a lot of money that instant, but it has high risk. And why people cant get addicted in trading because the traffic make us hard to earn money but in gambling you can really earn it fast if you are lucky
I actually do not get fun in trading because for me that is a serious thing and you need to study the market in order to profit, while in gambling you need to just rely on your luck sometimes and just play the game you like. Personally, I love sports betting and dice, so it gives me more entertainment.
1419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: August 12, 2016, 06:22:10 AM
NBA schedule for this upcoming season is out.
I'm more excited on Christmas Games. We can see the rematch of the last finals game and even the young Timberwolves have a game. Here are the games on Dec 25, 2016:
Celtics VS KNICKS
WARRIORS VS CAVS
BULLS VS SPURS
TIMBERWOLVES VS THUNDER
CLIPPERS VS LAKERS
That Christmas schedule is really something to look forward to. A lot of exciting matches would unfold on that cold night. Who's home court would the Warriors vs Cavs be played? That's going to generate a lot of buzz considering how GSW has made a lot of noise (with Durant's arrival) this offseason to reclaim what the Cavs took from them last Finals.
That game is most anticipated game this year. What will be the impact of Kevin Durant in Golden State basketball? Im sure they'll avenge their loss on last season's finals. Since the Cavaliers are still intact, what will be their improvements. The New York Knicks also will look for NBA title this year coz they have key players that can actually bring a big impact on their team. Im just very excited with these teams.
I will also be looking for the warriors vs cavaliers game in their first meeting this season, I am pretty sure the warriors will take this seriously as they want to avenge there loses in the finals, I hope they can make a statement though.

And once few merchants will start accepting bitcoins the others will start following them, the only important this is to get start off and that will be done sooner or latter.

No it's not like that. There are already few merchants out there in the market and some of them are really popular one but as of now there is only few merchants that are accepting bitcoin.

Competition is out of line here as long as bitcoin price always fluctuates, that is the main concern of those big merchants.
yeah there is a huge competition in a bitcoin world and it is great, i personally dont spend any of my bitcoins right now as i hold it for the future

If you cannot spend your coins at this stage then its better to hold them for future as price will be much higher and we will see many offline stores where we would be able to spend our coins.
I think it is not wise to spend our bitcoins now because the price is increasing. The better idea for now if you really need to spend, only spend for your basic needs, and spend your fiat if you are thinking of spending for your needs.

Thats right, just spend your bitcoins wisely, if you are really need in money for your needs then get a small portion of it and  save the other remaining bitcoin in your wallet as also serves  for a long term investment in future. As we all know that bitcoin  has the big potential to increase its price in upcoming years.
if possible do not touch your bitcoins for investment, it is should be appropriated only for investment and that is how to treat it like a business where personal money should not be fix in our own business for easy accounting and monitoring of our performance.
